Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.
At the 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Alarm.com Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), and as further described in Item 5.07 below, upon the recommendation of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board of Directors”), the Company’s stockholders voted on and approved amendments to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”) to reorganize the Board of Directors into one class, with each director subject to election each year for a one-year term (“Proposal 5”).
In connection with Proposal 5, the Board of Directors approved conforming amendments to the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws (“Bylaws”) contingent upon the effectiveness of the Charter and stockholder approval and implementation of Proposal 5.
This description is a summary of the amendments to the Charter and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Proposal 5 in the definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on April 29, 2021 (the “Proxy Statement”) and the full text of the redlined Charter filed as Appendix A to the Proxy Statement. Further, this description is a summary of the amendments to the Bylaws and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Bylaws, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.
The amendments to the Company’s Charter became effective on June 10, 2021 upon filing of a certificate of amendment with the Secretary of State of Delaware. The amendments to the Company’s Bylaws also became effective at that time.
